"After continuously studying for 5 years, the time has finally come. Students of Class 12-F, prepare yourself!"
In a classroom, rows of seats clamoured simultaneously. The students have nervous expressions on their faces. There are also longing and anticipation.
In an inconspicuous corner, a rough, refined young man was befuddled as he stared at the teacher. His head felt like it was about to burst. It took a while before he could settle down in his seat.
"What happened? Why do I have some additional memories I don't even know about?"
The confusion intensified. It wasn't until he properly digested everything that he calmed down. Even so, a peculiar look flashed in his eyes.
"So I was an ordinary officer in a cerulean planet. I spent my whole life drifting along on the internet and criticising web novels that made no sense."
Li Fenshuang was somewhat dumbfounded. He wouldn't say his life was miserable. It's just a little bit too miserable.
If you could only remember that you drifted on the internet as an ordinary officer and you criticized web novels worldwide in a life worth decades, wouldn't you feel the same?
Fortunately, although it was somewhat of a waste, there's a crucial point that made him feel no regret for living such a deadbeat life.
It's the storylines in the web novels!
Believe it or not, they're almost identical to what he's experiencing right now.
Undergoing a test to have the qualification to participate in a certain procedure beyond his simple life. Isn't this what he exactly had read?
At least he won't be as clueless as these students about the future.
As Li Fenshuang recalled his newfound memories, the teacher said, "There would be Martial Arts Masters from numerous forces coming to oversee the tests. Whether they took a fancy to you or not depends on your performance. I hope you'll give your all when the time for the Final Examination comes!"
An eccentric girl with dyed(?) pink hair at the back smiled giddily, squirming in her seat. Li Fenshuang didn't notice anything strange with her.
He was more attentive towards the figure beside him.
He widened his eyes. Don't tell me she's that person...
"Damn! The final examination is just a week away. Isn't that a little bit ridiculous?"
"I can't even comprehend the second level of the Basic Scripture. I'm doomed!"
"Shit. Just why time moves so fast?!"
Hearing them, Li Fenshuang turned pale. The Final Examination is just a week away. He hadn't even prepared anything!
He did not even know a single subject that would be included in the Final Examination!
Not to mention the requirement of Martial Arts the Final Examination imposed on its participants for him to pass!
Li Fenshuang hastily opened up his bag and snatched a notebook, ready to put in all-nighters for seven days straight. However, his face turned ashen when he saw nothing but chicken feet scratches in his notebook.
Because he was a poor orphan, he couldn't afford official books. Thus, he has been reliant on the notes that he wrote down when the teacher explained.
"But what is this?"
The chicken feet scratches seem to mock him as their chaotic flows surpassed the page's boundary and were interconnected with the bench's outlines, magically forming a sneering face.
"F*ck!"
He curses out loud, but no one is surprised.
Because the bell rang long ago, the class was already empty. No one waited for him, as he was a hopeless, lifeless youth. Western people usually called this gait 'emo'.
Despite his rough and refined figure, he acted like an emo. Li Fenshuang felt conflicted.
If not for his awakened memories, perhaps he would continue this type of conduct. After all, despite being considered a failure by his current self, his previous life could be considered normal, living as a relatively consistent man who was very social with his co-workers.
His sadness intensified when he recalled the plot of those web novels. In the beginning, in his position, the main character would awaken some sort of golden finger, leaving his peers in his dust.
He, Li Fenshuang, merely deepened his self-inferiority by inheriting his previous life's common sense. What a tragedy!
The sense of crisis to pull an all-nighter was initiated by his previous life. If it was the original him, he wouldn't give even a handful of f*ck.
He takes back what he said. His golden finger did exist, and it was common sense. What an awful revelation!
Li Fenshuang was stupified and speechless.
Feeling sorrowful, he stood up from his seat and went out of the class. He attended the Jin High School, which was very famous in the district. He was lucky to pass because of his address privilege.
He continued, passing the gates and trespassing the exit, finally stepping on the street. Li Fenshuang held a complex look as he observed the surroundings.
He couldn't be mistaken.
This is exactly how it looked like when he went home from school in his previous life.
"So I live in an alternate reality where I lost my parents due to extraterrestrial creatures at an early age."
Considering his personality where he ended up as a waste despite living a normal life, Li Fenshuang couldn't imagine how he'd turn out if he lived such a desperate life.
Perhaps it wasn't without reason that he had lost all hope.
As if recalling his memories, Li Fenshuang dazedly reminiscences the past, "Back then, I leisurely walked back home, not knowing that I would have to face the sorrow of being rejected by numerous universities. In the end, I only managed to scrape up the remaining spaces and barely secured a seat in a class B university."
"But wait, if I remembered correctly, wouldn't there be... What it is again?"
It was exactly at that time when a conflict broke out just as Li Fenshuang took a sharp turn to the right. His eyes widened in realization as he looked at the graceful figure ahead of him.
"Yes! It was when I discovered the burglars bullying Zhu Xueyan. Unfortunately, I was too cowardly to do anything when it happened."
He temporarily hid behind the walls, peeking at the commotion. He was shocked when the graceful figure suddenly delivered a devastating kick to one of the burglars, sending him to the other side of the road.
A loud boom was heard across the street, shocking men and women alike. Li Fenshuang was dumbfounded.
In his previous life, Zhu Xueyan would be held down by the burglars and would be saved by some boys from his school. While he, Li Fenshuang, would tremble on his feet as he hid and watched the scene, unable to do anything.
He wanted to change that just now, but Zhu Xueyan easily solved the situation by herself.
"M-Miss! We apologize for disturbing you! Please forgive us!"
The remaining burglars looked at their twitching brother in the wall and trembled. They looked at Zhu Xueyan, who looked as cold as a fairy.
The cold fairy didn't even answer. She swiftly kicked him in the face, scaring the other burglars away. She watched coldly as they ran, considering it beneath her to chase them.
She was like a cold fairy descending upon the mortal world. Considering the existence of supernatural power in this alternative reality, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Zhu Xueyan, who was already so graceful in his original reality, was comparable to an Immortal Fairy in terms of grace and disposition.
He, a mortal, was not worthy to be in contact with her, no matter how much he struggled!
Li Fenshuang could only stare at the scene with a dilapidated heart, staying quietly as he watched the graceful figure heroically fend off the burglars.
Zhu Xueyan's phoenix eyes seemed to catch something, and her graceful figure took a sharp turn, staring straight at Li Fenshuang.
"Who are you?"
Her electric icy eyes narrowed at him, rendering him motionless. Li Fenshuang tried to move, but he was too nervous to do anything under her gaze.
In the end, he took a sharp turn and ran away from the scene. His heart pounded against his ribs, emitting powerful heartbeats.
He wryly smiled inside. That Zhu Xueyan has become even more stunning. It was outrageous!
On the other hand, he, who was just an ordinary worker, would become even more ordinary in this alternative reality. No, he would become even worse.
After all, he has no parents he could depend on and no backups in case he messed up the exam. Hell, he didn't even have books for him to read!
At the previous sharp turn, Zhu Xueyan silently watched as Li Fenshuang ran, her willow eyebrows creased in perplexion and suspicion.
"Who could that be? I seemed to detect no malice, but why didn't he do anything just now? Do I know him? Or did he know me?"
Zhu Xueyan has reached Stage 3 Martial Realm, showcasing her extraordinary aptitude. She was originally an ordinary civilian, with an ordinary background. Fortunately, a passing expert took notice of her special physique and took her under her wings.
To put it into perspective, a Stage 1 Martial Master could be considered a novice, while a Stage 2 Martial Master was hailed as adept and capable of fighting hundreds of men alone.
A Stage 3 Martial Master could be considered a master who could build their dojo!
Zhu Xueyan was just a high-schooler, so this is pretty much unprecedented.
